Defining deep conservatism
My idea of deep conservatism does not
rule out a Jeffersonian/Jacksonian rebellion of the Donald Trump kind,
back to the will of the people against the corrupt establishment. As
Jefferson said, a little rebellion now and again can be a good thing.
The excellent Clyde Wilson recently wrote that Jefferson was not
speaking as a radical but as a reactionary.
To me moving back to the founding
constitutional separation of powers and states could accommodate
ethnopluralism, regions and states as ethnostates, within a
protecting federalism, even if a few amendments were necessary.
No other social or political structure
better harmonizes with real human nature, which remains as it has
always been, very much kin-centered and group-centered, or
ethnocentric in selection preferences, even if the political
correctness of cultural Marxism has made the truth taboo.
This is the natural way to deal with
unworkable and unassimilating multiculturalism, which attempts to jam
different groups together in one spot where they then only compete
and fight, often leading to civil disruptions and even civil war.
This defines deep conservatism.
